SCHOOL FAIR TO FEATURE DUTCH TREAT

The private school will be hosting its annual Country Fair Fun Day, which will feature entertainment, food, shops, an auction and games. The fair begins at 10 a.m.

The fair has a Dutch flavor because the school is named for the Dutch immigrants and descendants from the Christian Reformed Church who started the school 26 years ago. Many of the children attending the school are of Dutch descent.

Some of the classrooms will be transformed into little shops, where there will be arts and crafts, fresh produce, baked goods and plants for sale.

The featured food of the day will be Ollie Bollen, a deep-fried puffed pastry rolled in sugar and raisins, otherwise known as "fat balls."

Barbecued chicken will be served and some of the husbands of the ladies in theLadies Guild, the group sponsoring the fair, will be up at 5 a.m. Saturday making the sauce.

Music will be provided by the Palm Beach County Bluegrass Ramblers.

Games will include a dunk tank and a jail. Children will be challenged to find pennies hidden in a haystack.

At 3 p.m., there will be an auction of about 150 items, including a 1979 Olds Cutlass, dinner for two at The Breakers and a garage door operator.

The elementary school campus is at 1325 N. A St.

The Ladies Guild of the Lake Worth Christian School sponsors the fundraiser each year to purchase equipment for the school. Last year, the fair netted $25,000, according to Joan Starr, chairperson for the event.
